Description

Recto: Narrative in a mixture of Arabic script and Hebrew script. Unclear how literary it is. FGP says that it is a Karaite work that quotes Binyamin al-Nahawandi. The Hebrew-script portion complains about a Christian named Marcus who has destroyed the land and is in cahoots with Saʿāda the secretary (kātib) in the dīwān. Resembles ENA 1822A.16. Needs further examination. Verso: Probably an alms list.
